Serie A continues at the weekend and will see Torino host Sampdoria on Saturday night on matchday 11.
Torino were beaten 1-0 by AC Milan in their last game via a 14th-minute strike from Olivier Giroud. The loss on Tuesday means they have won just one of their last six games in the league, a 3-2 home victory over Genoa last weekend.
Il Toro sit 13th in the league with 11 points from 10 games and have failed to score in three of their last four games. They will be looking to return to winning ways when they host Sampdoria on Saturday.
Sampdoria have not performed much better than their hosts as they have also won one of their last six games. They were beaten 3-1 on home turf by Atalanta in their last game, their fourth defeat in six games.
Sampdoria sit 15th in the table with just nine points from 10 games. They have conceded the third-most goals (20) in the league and will be looking to win at the weekend as they look to move up the table.

The game at the weekend features two sides in near-abysmal form. Both Torino and Sampdoria have won just one of their last six league games and are well in the bottom half of the table.
Torino have fared better on their home turf and will want to take advantage of that when they face Sampdoria. The points should however ultimately be shared between both sides.
Prediction: Torino 1-1 Sampdoria
